“Prior to joining the GradIreland team in July 2013, I had been unemployed for some time. A business venture failed to take off and I was at an all-time career low. I knew that I needed to up-skill. After some market research I found that my best chances of employment would be found through finishing an online digital marketing course with MOMENTUM, and the best institution for this was Dublin Business School. There is a great atmosphere in the college and the staff are very helpful, friendly and approachable. The course content was excellent and very relevant to today’s market place. My work placement at the end of the course was with gradireland and I am still here today.”
